Excellent!

That depends on the version of wxWidgets VLC is linked with. IIRC, with 
version 2.4, you'll get gtk1, while you get gtk2 version 2.5. You might 
consider asking Dag Wieers directly, or using another RPM package if 
possible.

Of course. Just download the vlc.pot, start translating and send the 
result back to us, and we'll be more than happy to add it to the source 
tree.
